Even if Rafa didnt have a case (which I disagree on), there are many others who do (Laver, Gonzales, maybe Rosewall) so the thread title still would not change. Federer is not and never was the undisputed GOAT. Federer fans desperately want to potray him as the Michael Phelps, Michael Jordan, or Usian Bolt of tennis, but in reality he is nowhere close. He is merely one of the short list who could be argued as best ever, nothing more.

Agree on that part, this also holds true for all players as it is literally impossible for one single player to hold all the records (how many there are) to claim undisputed GOAT.
